IV. Who can Receive Baptism?

From The Catechism of the Catholic Church

1255
For the grace of Baptism to unfold, the parents’ help is important. So too is
the role of the godfather and godmother, who must be firm believers, able and
ready to help the newly baptized – child or adult on the road of Christian
life.⁵⁵ Their task is a truly ecclesial function (officium).⁵⁶
The whole ecclesial community bears some responsibility for the development and
safeguarding of the grace given at Baptism.
